Today I'd like to talk about the comfortable buses in New York.
In the past， there were 44 seats on a bus， but now there are only 19. The company changes the seats to big sofas， so you will feel more comfortable. In the beginning， they just changed the usual seats to airplane seats and took off 10 seats. However， passengers（乘客） wanted to have more comfortable seats when they spent a long time on the bus. The managers of the company wanted to satisfy （使?jié)M意） the passengers and make more money. So they changed the airplane seats to sofas， and the number of the seats becomes 19.
The managers of the company have many other ideas. The service on the buses is excellent now. They serve water， newspapers and other things you may need. Moreover， they play videos on the buses and passengers can watch films on their trip.
In short， passengers want to be more comfortable when they are on a trip. That is the main reason（原因） why they make so many improvements on the buses. Maybe we will have beds on the buses in the future.
